Thanks to everyone who responded, I've checked the pics, snaked a drop light into the comparment, took off grilles and turnsignals but still can't get this bi*ch open (the 15o weather here in Jersey ain't makin it easier. I made an appointment at body shop I know. When (if) he gets it open I am going to study it with a friggin microscope so this will never happen again. Also, I am going to study gas cap door cable in case something happens to that. I would suggest to all you supra owners to look into these things, as these cars run real well, but they are old and some things just don't last for ever, so you have to expect things to go now and then. Again, thank you everyone, especially Joel who sent close-up pics, I will pass them on to mechanic.
